CAUTION
● If LO or HI appears on the screen:
Repeat the test. If LO or HI still appears, contact your doctor or healthcare
professional. LO appears if your test result is less than 1.1 mmol/L. HI
appears if your test result is more than 33.3 mmol/L.
● The "hypo" or "hyper" icons may appear depending on the threshold limit
you have set (§7.4).
● β-Ketone test warning. If your own blood glucose is above a given
threshold (to be set, §7.5), the ketone icon "Ket" will start blinking at the
bottom left hand corner of the display and an intermittent beep will
sound, reminding the user that a blood β-ketone test would be
recommended.
● If test results do not match with how you feel:
Make sure you have performed the test correctly as explained in §4.2.
Then, conduct a glucose control test to check that the system is working
properly (§4.3). Repeat the test using a blood sample taken from a
fingertip (do not use a alternative site). If the test result still does not
match how you feel, contact your doctor or healthcare professional.
● Do not ignore test results. Do not alter your blood glucose management
or treatment without first consulting your doctor or healthcare
professional.
